It’s Your Birthday Classic Petunia Aperture Card

Hi friends, Happy Wednesday! I hope you are enjoying all of the wonderful inspiration from the Heartfelt Creations Design Team featuring the beautiful Classic Petunia Collection. I just adore this collection… I have some fun projects to share over the next few weeks so stay tuned 🙂 Today I wanted to share a simple aperture card you can easily create for that ‘special petunia lover’ in your life.

Start by taking a piece of card stock folded in half and die cutting the desired size Grand Labels One leaving the left side outside the die to make your card. Repeat with the full die cut and layer on the front to build the face of your card and finish with a die cut from the Grand Labels Decorative One using paper from the Classic Petunia Paper Collection for the panel. To make the window, place the Labels 42 Decorative Elements die in the desired location and pass through your die cutter with the card open so it does not cut through the back of the card. Finish the frame with another die cut from the Labels 42 Decorative Elements and the inside with a die cut from the Grand Labels One using paper from the Classic Petunia Paper Collection. The image in the center of the card was stamped on white card stock with Tuxedo Black and die cut with the matching die and colored using the Stack and Store Daubers and a combination of Pearlescent Thyme and Rose Bud inks. The Petunia in the center of the card was stamped on white card stock with Tuxedo Black and die cut with the matching die and colored using the Stack and Store Daubers and Rose Bud ink before shaping with the Flower Shaping tool and accented the stamens with Prills. Once the flower was shaped and assemble it was misted with Glimmer Mist for a little more sparkle! Finally, the corner images were stamped on white card stock with Tuxedo Black and die cut with the matching die and colored using a Dove Blender pen and a combination of Pearlescent Thyme and Rose Bud inks and accented with pink micro glitter using a quickie glue pen.
